The original concept of the dervish class was based on a bit of a "spell sword" where they use magic to supplicate their damage, and do so by using enchantments with end effects and attacks that remove enchantments

However I believe this concept was poorly applied because of how the dervish enchantments were made The main change to the enchantments will be to reduce the cast time to make them viable for melee dervishes

  • This skill was overpowered in the past because it didnt require any attribute investment for people to obtain the effect they wanted, which allowed for strong spikes - by requiring at least 8 wind prayers and reducing the enchantment removement area to adjacent from nearby this skill should be useful without overpowered
Mystic Twister[edit]

Mystic Twister Mystic Twister - 5 Energy¼ Activation time15 Recharge time - Enchantment Spell. (30 seconds.) Ends early if you use an attack skill. End effect: creates a twister at your location that reduces foes movement speed by 25% and deals 10...18...20 cold damage each second (5 seconds). Hits foes near to your initial location.

  • Proving the popularity of sand shards I figured a Wind Prayers version of it would be good as well, while they do the same amount of damage Sand Shards lasts 10 seconds while twister snares but only lasts half as long
Enchanted Haste[edit]

Enchanted Haste Enchanted Haste - 5 Energy¼ Activation time15 Recharge time - Enchantment Spell. (1...5...6 seconds.) You move 25% faster. End effect: You attack 25% faster(1...5...6 seconds)

  • This skill was fully revamped because its original version is not only fairly boring but it was also redundant with the vast amount of IMS in the wind prayers line
